Help finding replacement springs for my classic wagon
 
I'm looking for a spring for MY96 wagon that will lower it a little, but still maintain a good ride such as Eibach springs. From what I've seen the Eibachs lower the rear too much, and they don't make a specific spring for us wagon owners so the "sag" in back would be even worse.

I'll be using KYB GR2 struts and this is my daily driver. I'm just looking to liven it up a bit :)

I have set of eibachs in my MY99 wagon and they're been fine - handling is miles better and they have greatly improved the ride when the rear is laden (previously the front felt rather light when there was a load in the back). It's my daily drive and has carried some serious loads with no problems at all. hope that helps.

What kind of struts are you using and do you have any pictures you could share?

I just found out how soft the Whiteline springs are!

Are there any other options for wagon springs? What are other's using?
